Editing the grubscreen
Quoting from post #1 (tutorial)...

Problem 2 - grub-screen entry reverts from Linux Lite to Ubuntu, following a routine installation of  Linux Lite updates - added on 24.12.15
In Section E (above) I showed how the entry of 'Ubuntu' in the grub screen could be edited to Linux Lite. However, I have found that every-now-and-then, following installation of updates, the grub-entry name of Linux Lite, appears to revert to Ubuntu.  It's mildly irritating, but you can simply re-edit the grub-screen, going through the steps in Section E, again. Alternatively, you can just leave it as is, since the grub-entry name in itself does not change the functioning of Linux Lite at all in any way - it's just a label. 

A much easier and quicker way of editing any grub-screen entry, such as the one quoted above, is to use an app called grub-customizer.  As far as I know, the latest *.deb version is as follows: grub-customizer_5.0.6-0ubuntu1~ppa1t_amd64.deb

After downloading, simply install with gdebi package manager.

2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
